Resume of the Library Services Available to You

With school starting again, we thought it would be a good idea to give a resume of the library services available to you.

LIBRARY CARDS- Any resident of Wisconsin is eligible for a library card, free of charge. This card is good in the South Central Library System, which includes libraries in Adams, Columbia, Dane, Green, Portage, Sauk and Wood counties.

NEW BOOKS- On the first day of each month the new books are put on the New Book shelf. (Hot or high-demand titles are put out as they are processed.)

MAGAZINES- You may check out back issues of any of our magazines. These issues will be behind the current magazine on the shelf. There is no limit to the number of magazines you can check out. 

 

MUSIC/MOVIES- We have a growing collection of movies of all types on DVD and we still have some VHS tapes. Also available is our CD collection with over 2,000 music titles, and more available from other libraries.

 

COMPUTERS-The library has twenty Internet stations with word-processing programs and you can also bring in your wireless device to use the Internet here.  We also have Laptops for use in the library to access the Internet.

 

PROGRAMS- Children’s programs include storytimes, after school programs and family programs. Adult programs include book groups, computer classes, entertaining and instructional programs. Summer Library program is offered for all ages.

 

INTERLIBRARY LOAN- You can request any book, movie, etc from other libraries via LINKcat. If the item isn’t available, we can try Outerlibrary loan to get titles from libraries outside of the South Central System.

 

MEETING ROOMS- We have a Conference Room (a small meeting room) and the Community Room that are both available for meetings during and after library hours. Study Rooms are also available during library hours, on a first-come first-served basis. 

 

AV EQUIPMENT- We have an Overhead Projector, Opaque Projector, Slide Projector, Tape Recorder, Portable CD players, Sony Digital Video Camera, Flip Mino Video camera, MP3 Players (iPod Shuffle & E-Matic), LCD Projector, LED Projector and magnifier. 

 

These are most of the library materials and some of the services available to the public. We also do test proctoring, have copy machines (black/white and color) and a fax machine. But the staff is not here just to get materials for you. If you need the answer to a question or some other information, we will be happy to help you. Don’t forget that this is YOUR library and we love to help you find what you need.

Deli Bean are sure to be popular items. There are also certificates to attractions like Taliesin or Lake of the Torches Casino. If you are a Green Bay Packers fan, there are lots of unique items from a card table to bobbleheads to signed programs. Stop in and join the fun of seeing whether you can outbid your friends or neighbors for any of the “one of a kind” items!Deli Bean are sure to be popular items.
